The Password that Calls You: CallVerifID

JanRain, which makes the clever multi-service OpenID login box, OpenID Selector, is expected to announce a security improvement for its own MyOpenID service. The new system, CallVerifID, uses your mobile phone to perform an extra security measure before it will authenticate you on its service….The addition of the phone as a new security factor means that even if someone steals your password, they won't be able to get into your OpenID-protected accounts unless they also have access to your phone.
